Description John Lewis 2007-01-06 11:22:03 UTC

The topmost build errors are:-

/usr/include/linux/if.h:118: error: redefinition of 'struct ifmap'
/usr/include/linux/if.h:154: error: redefinition of 'struct ifreq'
/usr/include/linux/if.h:204: error: redefinition of 'struct ifconf'

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge --sync
2. emerge linux-atm


Actual Results:  
You get same errors reported above have tried on 4 different machines with the same results:-

/usr/include/linux/if.h:118: error: redefinition of 'struct ifmap'
/usr/include/linux/if.h:154: error: redefinition of 'struct ifreq'
/usr/include/linux/if.h:204: error: redefinition of 'struct ifconf'

Expected Results:  
Well it should've compiled.

I thought that this might have been a linux-headers issue. Certain forum messages pointed to that, but I have a machine which was already at the new linux-headers which would compile linux-atm before I emerge synced but not after.

I found the problem first trying to do a new install that will be using PPP over ATM. I cannot complete or get any where near completing the install until this is fixed and I have lost over half a days work fiddling trying to get it working so far.
